Boatbuilding has been a traditional skill in Cornwall for many
hundreds of years. In the more sheltered waters of Carrick Roads,
on the leeward side of the Lizard peninsula, this tradition has
flourished almost since the dawn of time to the present day.
Pasco's Boatyard at St Just in Roseland has been in the forefront
of this tradition of boatbuilding, repairing, mooring and storing
boats for well over a quarter of a millennium. So much so that it
is part of the fabric of the south-west area of Cornwall. As a
strong commercial fishing area, Carrick Roads has led the way in
providing good quality seafood for the area and the wider nation as
a whole. Then as the move to larger mechanised fishing methods
gathered pace, the skills of the craftsmen at St Just were turned
towards the ever growing leisure and sporting section of the
sailing and boating community. Thanks to these skills and the
enthusiasm of the craftsmen at Pasco's, this tradition looks set to
continue for many decades to come.
